I’ll fill you right in with a recap: 

• MJ died.
• Jermaine came out on TV and told us Michael had died.
• People started building tribute temples, saying nice things about MJ, who had died.
• The coroner’s office checked MJ’s body out, ordered toxicology tests because they still weren’t sure how MJ died.  But they were pretty sure that he HAD died.
• Media sources talked a lot about MJ dying.

There were other related events, too:

• There were seven Spanish angels, at the altar of the sun
• They were praying for the lovers, in the valley of the gun
• When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared, there was thunder from the throne
• And seven Spanish angels took another angel home

Tributes rolled right in from across the globe for Michael, namely from places where people had little to no access to information for the last two decades and didn’t know that Jackson was creepy.

The Other Side Of Normal has received numerous of these well-wishes and fond memories of MJ from around the globe (because TOSON is clearly YOUR source for all things Michael):

‘Anonymous’ in London:

I remember once when I was in LA on vacation back in the early 90′s, I was walking down the street and saw a dude(?) surrounded by bodyguards, and he had black hair and was wearing sunglasses.  His skin was really white and you couldn’t look at him for very long before your eyes got hurt.

Turns out that it was MJ who had just signed some auto-insurance forms and was leaving the isurance building!  That moment changed my life!

‘Barry’ in Hong Kong:

(Translated:  After Michael Jackson has it, oh the human my rectum is the ache.)

‘Tina’ in Sydney:

G’day mate!  Back when MJ gittied down to Big Smoke, we was paying serious bikkies to see him an’ he rolled right out onto stage like a big ol’  spazzy cockie and blew our dag brains!  Ace!
